How is sports medicine different from physiotherapy?

Consultants in Sport and Exercise Medicine are medically qualified. This means that they are able to make medical assessments which take the sports injury in the context of the overall medical condition of the patient. In addition sports physicians have access to and are able to perform medical investigations and medical procedures. We work very closely with physiotherapy to use the combined expertise of both disciplines to the maximal advantage of individual patients.

When and where are clinics held?

OxSEM run routine clinics from the Manor hospital, Headington, Oxford on Tuesday mornings, Tuesday evenings and Thursday evenings. Both Dr Newton and Dr Jones can arrange appointments outside these times if clinically necessary.
